Dear Davis, Thank you a lot for sharing this, and I am happy that I was not the only one who need to do it once to learn:)
I proposed to add my repo to the manual. I think it makes sense to add both of ours, if possible, or we could merge them together and add that to the manual. Long-term URL stability is apparently an issue, but I think we may find a solution there. Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing!
